Will not say “who” but a very notable football player and award winner – will not say “what” (as I am a not an official NCAA spokesperson) – at the “where” of a major Texas university, was often arrested either by campus or city of (cannot say) only about (when) 15 years ago because he would be caught driving and (gasp!) toking pot in his vehicle.

Okay, SI and ESPN, do your homework from the clues and write another boring, so what? story.

College student ARE adults and what consenting adults do in their bedroom is their business ONLY!

That being said…..

SI…..YAWN!!

What a bummer. I miss what SI used to be. This is like when WCW tried to get all extreme and badass in its final years.

Yes, I made a wrestling comparison, therefore all previous points are invalid.

Got it. Tolerable to create demand for a product but unacceptable to be that one fulfilling that demand.

Bottom line this story is becoming more of a non-issue every day. Unless something comes from the pay for play or academic fraud I imagine we’ll be talking about something else in a week.

Duh, yes. Your kid does some weed and you probably can just shrug it off as him being a kid. You find out he’s dealing? Much bigger problem. Doubtful college athletes had green thumbs growing their own so they were getting it from suppliers and that almost always means “gang members.”

So wait, you can use weed, and that’s fine, but the person who sold it to you is doing something wrong?

Thu, 12 Sep 2013 15:15:53 +0000http://collegefootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=315012#comment-141172The more SI publishes of this, the more we learn about the “investigative” process & tactics used by Thayer Evans and George Dohrman, the more respected journalists like Peter King continue to publicly back the writers, more the real winners of this “expose” continue to emerge: CFT, and basically, any organization not named ESPN or SI.

Having worked as a reporter and on-air “talent” (sarcasm heavily intended) for the first 7 or so years of my professional life, I can honestly say I would never have been allowed to publish what SI has gone with so far. Never. In fact, my first editor would have berated me Alec Baldwin / Glengary Glen Ross style.

Seriously, can anyone tell me how this is helping SI, aside from web traffic?
